[2601 Grant] SwaptoX Aggregator – Milestone 1

Vote: AGAINST

Rationale: Voted Against this proposal because the author did not complete KYC, which is a prerequisite for receiving grant funding. In addition, the proposal lacks publicly verifiable information and does not clearly articulate a meaningful differentiator relative to existing swap aggregators already operating on Rootstock. The author’s decision to remain anonymous further compounds these concerns and reinforces the importance of completing the KYC process.

[2510] Grant Proposal - Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) sandbox rootstock integration - Milestone 2

Vote: AGAINST

Rationale: Voted Against the release of Milestone 2 funding for the Self-Sovereign Identity App. Following discussions within the Collective, it is clear that the grant is not yet ready to advance to Milestone 2. Key requirements remain unmet, including regular reporting and progress updates, as well as consistency and clarity in the budget across milestones.

[2508 Grant Proposal] All-or-Nothing Crowdfunding with Rootstock - Milestone 3

Vote: FOR

Rationale: Voted FOR the release of Milestone 3 funding for All-or-Nothing Crowdfunding. The team has successfully completed deliverables for the first two milestones and continues to be active and engaged both on the forum and on X. Looking forward to reviewing Milestone 3 outputs.

Loan interest return to boost bitcoin-backed circular economies - Milestone 1

Vote: AGAINST

Rationale: Voted AGAINST this pilot program to enable circular economies to access bitcoin-backed credit (using RBTC as collateral) through Tropykus. There are several major concerns with this program, raised by delegates in the forum. Several major concerns were raised by delegates in the forum:

  1. Insufficient liquidity: Tropykus does not currently have adequate USDRIF or DOC liquidity to support an additional $100k in lending without negatively impacting existing users and interest rates.

  2. Limited scalability: The pilot targets only a handful of communities with no clear plan for scaling beyond the initial cohort, raising questions about the program’s long-term viability and impact.

While the concept of supporting bitcoin-backed circular economies has merit, these structural issues need to be addressed before committing DAO resources.

[2601 Grant] SwaptoX Aggregator – Milestone 1

Vote: FOR

Rationale: Voted to fund Milestone 1 for SwapToX, a decentralized swap aggregator. The proposer has been responsive to questions and completed KYC. Rootstock users could benefit from more infrastructure that enables swapping through an aggregator rather than a single decentralized exchange.

One note: to verify completion of Milestone 1, the Collective will be reviewing the outcomes outlined in the proposal on the governance forum, not necessarily those included in the on-chain proposal. Ideally, the Milestone 1 outcomes should have been copied over to create an on-chain record, but I don’t see this as a dealbreaker for voting against the proposal.

[2510] Grant Proposal - Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) sandbox rootstock integration - Milestone 2

Vote: FOR

Rationale: Voted FOR funding Milestone 3 for the Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) Sandbox. After reviewing the M2 proof — which focused on establishing a qualified pipeline of Rootstock-aligned projects and initiating foundational support across technical feasibility, treasury/RIF strategy, and ecosystem mentorship — as well as @Kaf_Anode’s review of the M2 outcomes, it’s clear the project is ready to move forward to Milestone 3.

[2510] Grant Proposal - Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) sandbox rootstock integration, maturity and alpha launch

Vote: FOR

Rationale: Voted FOR to fund Milestone 2 to expand an existing decentralized identity infrastructure sandbox to a dApp on the Rootstock mainnet. Milestone 1 was delivered (testnet launch + CID storage contracts), and Milestone 2 is appropriately focused on security hardening (audit, fixes, gas profiling, fuzz/symbolic testing, and monitoring). Proposal author mrmtech clearly detailed milestone progress and improved clarity on scope and deliverables.

[2508 Grant] M3 Infrastructure Ventures Path to Ecosystem Growth;Milestone 3

Vote FOR

Rationale Due to a likely block-timing shift in the voting end time, Axia was unable to cast a vote. Based on my review, the vote would likely have been FOR. Axia was waiting on the proposal author Francisco to share evaluation documents for all projects in the incubator under Milestone 2 KPIs. After review, the stated deliverables were met.

[2510 Grant] Zerem Finance - Real World Asset (RWA) - Milestone 2 - Lemon Integration

Vote: FOR

Rationale Due to a likely block-timing shift in the voting end time, Axia was unable to cast a vote. Based on my review, my vote would likely have been FOR. I had previously raised concerns about the lending aggregator pivot from real estate to cars; however, the proposal now discloses Zerem’s planned miniapp integration with Lemon, which could significantly expand Rootstock’s reach.

[2601 Grant] SwaptoX Aggregator – Milestone 1(V2.1 Proposal)

Voted FOR funding Milestone 1 for SwapToX, a decentralized swap aggregator. This is a revised Milestone 1 proposal, building on the original submission that I also supported. The updated version strengthens the scope by adding an objective to deploy liquidity sorting and quotation bots, which will enhance the swap algorithm and improve stability.

[Grant 2603] Recognized Delegate Compensation - February 2026;Here are February’s top engaged delegates

Voted FOR this proposal to make delegate compensation payments to the delegates who qualified in February. I am supportive of this program as it strengthens governance by rewarding delegates who make consistent and meaningful contributions.

[2603] Rootstock BTCFi Onboarding & Builder Activation — CryptoVendimIA 2026

Voted AGAINST this proposal for Rootstock Collective to sponsor the CryptoVendimIA conference. I recognize the conference’s recognition and positive track record, however the timeline for this sponsorship proposal is too compressed: the event is scheduled to start on March 25, the proposal only reached the forum on March 2, and the vote went on-chain on March 11. In addition, there is a discrepancy between the 10k sponsorship ask on the forum and the 7.5k amount in the on-chain vote. Wishing the organizers all the best and perhaps next year Rootstock can participate as a sponsor.
